Thought Questions:
1) How would you decide what kind of scientific tests are ethical (for example using human volunteers, testing on yourself, or using animals)?
A:I think that having children go somewhere that they don’t know of, without a parents permission is ethical.
2) How had Uncle Andrew misunderstood the function of the rings? Why do you think he made that mistake? Is it wise to use something you don’t understand completely?
A:Uncle Andrew thought that the yellow rings can take you out of anywhere, but they can only take you out of their world, not others… I don’t think  that it’s wise to do that because if Uncle Andrew didn’t know something else about the rings than the kids could’ve gotten stuck somewhere.
